ISIS claims Sri Lanka bombings that official says were "retaliation" for New Zealand attack

ISIS claimed responsibility on Tuesday for the Easter Sunday suicide bomb attacks in Sri Lanka, as an official in the country said the preliminary investigation into the attacks shows it was "retaliation" for the massacre of Muslims at mosques in Christchurch, New Zealand. The coordinated bombings on Sunday, targeting churches and hotels in and around the Sri Lankan capital, killed more than 320 people.

"The preliminary investigations have revealed that what happened in Sri Lanka was in retaliation for the attack against Muslims in Christchurch," state minister of defence Ruwan Wijewardene told parliament. No other Sri Lankan officials repeated the assessment of the intelligence, and it was unclear what Wijewardene based his judgement on.

Fifty people were killed in shooting attacks on two mosques in the New Zealand city of Christchurch on March 15. An Australian white supremacist is accused of carrying out the attack on his own, and streaming his acts on Facebook.

If this excuse is used, then if I were a Buddhist-enthusiast in Sri Lanka...I’d say the entire population of Muslims have to pack up and leave (2-million) the island, because there’s going to be another New Zealand act somewhere in the next year or two, and this will just repeat again.

Bad parenting. The neighbor’s little Bobby does something so you beat the living crap out of Johnny, a random kid on the playground...

Like another FReeper said, Islam has the primitive gang mentality.

“You kill one of ours, we kill 5 of yours”

Islam = MS-13

I had to reply to this as you are giving Islam way more credit than they deserve. They’re going to kill you and everyone they can whether you do anything to them or not.

The New Zealand attacker was not a Christian extremist, He was a secular fanatic. This last week there were over a dozen attacks in Europe, Africa, and Sri Lanka by Muslims against Christians. Churches burned and Christians killed. And the press in the USA said : “ Meh, no big deal, just a bunch of dead Christians” and focused on the Kardashians

So the NZ mosque shooter killed 49. Then the Sri Lanka bombers killed 310. So the next action will invoice the deaths of approximately 6.33 times 310. So where do you go to kill 2,000 muzzies all at once? Minnesota?

How many more completely innocent random bystanders that have nothing in common with New Zealand will their vengeance require?
